Anthony Stallard's actions are sure to haunt him.

That's because according to the Huffington Post, 24-year-old Stallard was arrested and fined for his drunken behavior at Kingston Cemetery in Portsmouth, England.

In addition to singing loudly and kicking a soccer ball around the gravestones, witnesses claim Stallard pretended to be a ghost, complete with arm flapping and creepy "wooo" sounds in front of a grieving family.

Stallard pleaded guilty to using threatening or abusive words or behavior likely to cause distress. His fine amounted to approximately $58. His graveyard antics caused his suspended sentence for a previous assault charge to be extended by three months, according to the The Portsmouth News.

The man's attorney says Stallard regrets his actions.
